I think the idea of adding crystals is just fantasy, it takes days of focused meditation to shape the crystal perfectly when crafting a saber, so just being able to pop in a new crystal seems a bit convenient. _______________ "You might find that smoke blown out clears the mind of shadows within." |

According to the fully authoritative and Lucas-approved Star Wars visual dictionary book-type thingy, red crystals are actually synthetic ones that the Sith learned to make long ago. Apparently they're slightly more powerful, and some have other bonuses as well. Jedi prefer natural crystals. _______________ Saving the world, one kilobyte at a time. |

When I used to play the Star Wars RPG blade color was determined by crystal color. Intesity/strength of the blade were determined by the quality of the crystal. Blade length is determined by the size of the crystal. At the time the crystals were believed to be about the size of a walnut before being cut into the appropriate shape for lightsaber use. In the RPG, the way we played may differ from others of course, it was desired to have a blue or green blade since they are considered to be of the highest quality over all. Red is equally powerful but the Jedi remain unaware of where the "red" crystals originate from. It was believed that only a small amount of red crystals exist and they are guarded by the Sith. I was a long time ago but I am pretty sure most of this info came out of the source books for the RPG. _______________ “Arguing on the internet is like competing in the Special Olympics.

I think KOTOR goes too far with Lightsaber modability I mean its like 4000 years before movies and you can make blades more 'sharp'? I found this http://forums.gamespot.com/gamespot/show_messages.php?board=920194&topic=18594208&page=0 I think its quite good :p _______________ Rawr.

The extra crystals that can be added to the hilt of the sarbre can increase the strength or intesity of the beam, or chanche the length and width of the blade. One necesarry crystal depicts the colour of the blade. in KOTOR, at least. _______________ Padawan to Solitude "Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to... suffering" -Jedi Master Yoda "I shall not fear.

Colour (contrary to its implementation in KotOR) is mostly a result of the focusing crystals used. I don't know of any [movie] Jedi that chose their saber crystals for the colour.

I change colours a lot. I like to roleplay characters, even in non-RP games such as JKA, and my color on a server at any given time will be based on how my character's currently set up. Examples: Blue - Usually staff or single, light-side attack-enhancing powers such as Speed. LS Guardian with more emphasis than usual on Force in KotOR. Green - Single, light-side with defensive powers such as Heal, Mind Trick, and Absorb. LS Consular on KotOR. Purple - Single, when I'm on a roll as far as dueling goes. LS Single-Saber Guardian (Mace Windu style) in KotOR. Red - Any DS combination. Usually staff, Push, and Drain. I really don't use yellow much, except in KotOR, for LS Scout/Sentinel, single saber, very defense-oriented build. I also think if you read into the defs Kreep gave a bit, you'll find that they agree quite nicely with the KotOR versions, and also with the characters' blade choices in the SW movies. _______________ Saving the world, one kilobyte at a time. |

Is it suggested that the colour of the sabre is somehow connected to the user? Hmmmmmmm... Interesting. I don't know if it's relevant, but in Episode 2, the blue lightsabre absorbs the force lightning progected by Dokuu. And not the green ones. I dunno if only the blue can, but it is worth considering. _______________ Padawan to Solitude "Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to... suffering" -Jedi Master Yoda "I shall not fear.

Yellow for me, i agree totally with Kreeps post. However, i often use a combination of blue and purple should i ever use duals ... mainly because Blue and purple next to each other is my favourite color (dont ask... i dont have a fav color but two put side-by-side ) the reason for Yellow when single is because of the Kyle Katarn storyline.. focusing on the Yun part ..... Yun sacrificed his life for Kyle so he could use Yuns yellow lightsaber against Saris.. but what does he go and do between JK1 and JK2 ... he ditches it and creates a new lightsabre???? how respectful is that Anyways when i played jk1 (when it was like a brand new game and was loved by all ) i allways liked Yun.. he was my favourite character and i slowly grew to love his yellow blade... and when i first played JK! online with it i went by the name of yun, used his skin and his yellow lightsabre EDIT: what i dont get, is in MOTS .. where the hell does that orange lightsabre come from _______________ -Padawan of Virtue -Brother of Menaxia, *|irael, Krynn Adept, Majno, Ris Win Juljul, DaMi3N, Beowulf, Dash Starlight, Carrock and Yuken Zalak Bartender at Munes bar.
